A lot of fans ignore this explanation because not only does it ruin the popular "The real world is another level of the Matrix" idea, but it makes the Source a little too powerful to be believable (like giving Neo psychic premonitions outside of the Matrix).


However, as the Headscratchers page and this Cracked article detail, there's still a lot of problems. Esoteric Happy Ending: The film ends on a happy note with Neo achieving a truce between Zion and the Machines, and the Architect promising the Oracle that humans who want out of the Matrix will be freed.Likewise, her crewmates Ghost and Sparks, major characters in said game, have minor speaking parts. Continuity Lock-Out: Niobe mentioning seeing the Oracle only makes sense if you played Enter the Matrix.The world is not your playground and your behavior is causing tangible harm to those you come in contact with. Knock it off and get over your bully complexes. Too many of y’all wield your marginalized identity like a shield to try to minimize and justify your behavior and that is causing active harm to the rest of us while simultaneously making it easier for our oppressors to continue oppressing us.

I think many of y’all need to be educated about the concept of lateral aggression because too many of y’all think that being marginalized yourself gives you a free pass to act completely fucked up towards other marginalized people, even ones in your own community that you share marginalization with, because you’re under the false impression that your behavior isn’t harmful on any meaningful level and that’s not true.
